Excellent source for 3 view drawings of use
to the flight simmer community. and incorporates now "Eduardo's
Page"
Also, vehicles, tanks. Those marked "extra" may
inlcude other views, cross sections, etc.

Excellent source for 3 view drawings of use
to the flight simmer community. While the drawings are limited
to WW2 aircraft from various part of the world most are very
detailed and with cross sections. Slow downloading, but worth
more than a look!

Similar to other illustrated encyclopedic
aircraft books, with short writeups and performance data
on the various aricraft, many photos and 3-views. Since
it's dedicated to fighters, it includes rather obscure limited
adition and/or prototypes rarely mentioned.

Source for 3-views and Photos. The site offers
downloadable (pdf format) catalogs for 3-views and Photo-Paks.
The 3-views are a misnomer. In some cases you get 7 pages
worth of detailed drawings (Lisunov Li-2), and for others,
it's just a 3-view. Sample photo pak is in the web site.
Generally, a photo pak details the particular aircraft.
You can order plans by phone, and delivery is usually within
3 days (Continental US). Prices for the 3-views are reasonable
- around USD3-5, but up to $20+ for "Sp" detailed
drawings.

A great site with specs on many different
planes. It also has a section on just engines!

"The Modern Civil Aircraft Guide"
by David Donald

Mark Branscum

This book is a 3 view book, but not of line
drawings, instead it is highly detailed almost photo realistic
in fact it would be hard to tell the difference between
these and a real photo. It covers aircraft from the 1950's
to present...Included in this is Single Props to airliners.
I recommend this one highly.

I purchased this book today and it's more
than a source of 3-views. If you can get your hands on it,
it's a good buy. The book is an update of the 1987 original.
It is a revised and updated illustrated directory of the
world's civil airliners, aircraft technology and airlines.

For the Flight Sim modeller, this book represents
a very good collection of photos, 3-views and basic performance
data on the world's principal airliners (friom large jetliners
to principal commuters), "minor" aircraft still
plying the airways, and the future. Most entries in the
main section include detailed cutaway illustrations. and
plenty of detail views.

In addition, "value added" so to
speak, the book also has sections describing Aircraft Technology,
The Anatomy of a Flight, the Flight Deck, etc., offering
comparisons between the different aircraft, cabin etc, configurations,
as well as engine tenchnology and future developments. The
final section of the book is "World Airways" describing
the major world airlines and fleet data (at least as of
late 1997)

The entries are well-written, concise and
very informative. The book is well worth the purchase if
only for the 3-views and aircraft performance data, but
the additional information provides the enthusiast with
valuable information on commercial aviation.

Dan has some good 3-views of "Luftwaffe
'46" projects that were on the books, but didn't get
built.
